About this banknote
The Bulgarian National Bank issued the 50 leva banknote in 1992 as part of the 1991–1994 series. This series was introduced following the fall of the communist regime, marking a transition in Bulgaria's currency design.
The obverse features a portrait of publisher Hristo G. Danov (1828–1911) on the left, with the denomination "ПЕТДЕСЕТ ЛЕВА" (fifty leva) and the numeral "50." The reverse displays a 19th-century platen printing press on the right. The banknote measures 125 × 62 mm and has a watermark depicting a rampant lion.
